Dr. B

+Flat $19 consult price with no membership is a genuine low-cost outlier versus most direct-to-consumer telehealth
+Founder credibility from Cyrus Massoumi's Zocdoc track record, plus national press coverage (NYT, TIME)
+Broad 30+ condition list spanning hair loss, dermatology, and everyday primary care from a single intake
−Shorter operating history (founded 2021) means less accumulated patient-review volume than established competitors
−Consult is async only — no live video option for patients who prefer to speak with a clinician directly
−Prescriptions route to a local pharmacy for pickup by default rather than home delivery, an extra step some competitors skip

ProlongMD

+Low published prices: compounded semaglutide/B12 from $99/mo and tirzepatide/B12 from $149/mo, with no membership fee
+$79 video consult is credited toward the first treatment purchase, and a written price-match policy covers comparable injectable programs
+Names its prescribing clinicians (two physicians, two nurse practitioners) and runs synchronous video visits
−Sells BPC-157/TB-500 and GHK-Cu/BPC-157/KPV/TB-500 'peptide blends', compounds the FDA has flagged for safety concerns and which have no approved drug form
−Dispensing pharmacies are not named, and the states served are not published (visible reviews come only from TX and CO)
−Very new (LLC formed August 2025) with no independent review footprint; several on-site star ratings have no review text
